Description

I meant it am a dunnock. Probably is it however a young bird of ? it could be also a young robin. Danny (danob) made me attentive. The photo I made in the middle of September and I think it is too late for a robin brood. But one does not know it exactly.... I had to lay in wait for some time. Literally. Luckily, no ant hill was beneath me ;-) The little bird is very shy, but my patience has been rewarded. wish you a wonderful day/night! ....many thanks for the nice remarks and favorites on my previous photos! ***************PLEASE OPEN THE FULL-SIZED IMAGE WINDOW***************

Very beautifully captured but this looks a little more like a juvenile Robin than the Dunnock or Hedge sparrow. With the cresent markings upturned wider gap at the base of the beak the only way to tell them apart is often the head shape and markings.

Great shot! Getting close enough to most wild creatures requires patience and a willingness to learn from them. You certainly show those qualities here!

Was für ein niedlicher kleiner Vogel, so süß. Ich genieße morgens am Fenster den kleinen Federknäulen am Futterhäuschen zuzuschauen. :-) Tolles Foto!!!
